Gallo Pinto

Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the onions and sauté for approx. 3 minutes until translucent and soft. Then add the garlic and fry briefly – for about 20 seconds, until wonderfully fragrant.

Add black beans and water (or bean broth). Turn the heat to medium-high and let everything simmer gently.

Fold in the cooked rice and cook for about 2 minutes until everything is well combined and warmed through.
